Quotes About Books

Find interesting inspirational quotes about books here. Books are the value added to human kind that preserve the feelings, intellect, thought, inspiration and guidance that sets humans aside from all else. Books aren't just for those who attend institutions of higher learning, nor are they the reserve to those students who are commanded to read from teachers at all levels of education. The food within a book serves to endlessly record development, and, in some cases, recalls what we may have known in the past but is necessary to revitalize again through new interpretations. Good books are like good dogs; they are your constant companion no matter where you go, or how you are feeling.

A book is the only place in which you can examine a fragile thought without breaking it, or explore an explosive idea without fear it will go off in your face. It is one of the few havens remaining where a man's mind can get both provocation and privacy.
Edward P. Morgan

I've never read a book that didn't contain one new idea or thought that was worthy of reflection.

Many people, other than the authors, contribute to the making of a book, from the first person who had the bright idea of alphabetic writing through the inventor of movable type to the lumberjacks who felled the trees that were pulped for its printing. It is not customary to acknowledge the trees themselves, though their commitment is total.
Forsyth and Rada

After all manner of professors have done their best for us, the place we are to get knowledge is in books. The true university of these days is a collection of books.
Albert Camus

Books are the carriers of civilization. Without books, history is silent, literature dumb, science crippled, thought and speculation at a standstill.
Barbara Tuchman

The greatest gift is a passion for reading. It is cheap, it consoles, it distracts, it excites, it gives you the knowledge of the world and experience of a wide kind. It is a moral illumination.
Elizabeth Hardwick

A book lying idle on a shelf is wasted ammunition. Like money, books must be kept in constant circulation. Lend and borrow to the maximum -- of both books and money! But especially books, for books represent infinitely more than money. A book is not only a friend, it makes friends for you. When you have possessed a book with mind and spirit, you are enriched. But when you pass it on you are enriched threefold.
Henry Miller
